Pros: save money, very doable

Cons: pain in the ass

It's not just the price/range keeping me away from this... I saw the video on changing a cabin air filter on this thing.

If that's how the air filter was engineered, I have my doubts about the rest of the vehicle.

Cons: doubts about engineering

Not a mechanic but have to be because I have to keep our cars on the road. I'll tell you what the bastard that decides where cabin filters need to be. I want 5 minutes alone in a room with their ass. In my wife's Nissan I have to lay on the drivers floorboard upside down with half my body out of the car on the ground to gain access to the side panel that's next to the gas pedal. From there you have to pull out this accordion looking filter element out of it's chamber that is seemingly too small for it and once your back is killing you and all the blood has rushed to your head you have to somehow shove the new one in that isn't as old and flexible without passing out. As a 40 year old overweight dude it kills me.

Cons: hard to install, kills back
